The problems experienced by manufacturers over the last year and a half have taught us a lot. Many lessons were learned, ranging from the need for supply chain resilience to the usefulness of remote monitoring. When you include changing customer expectations and ongoing technological advances, you have a wealth of data to sort through and
Logistics centres don’t send pallets of single items, but shipments of mixed items. Huge trucks deliver items to the logistics centre and someone must unload the truck. During the unloading of the truck, each item must be registered and then stored. For this purpose Universal Robots and Mujin Corp created an automated system. With the
A collaborative robot collaborates with humans in a defined space without risk of serious injury or accidents. The appeal of a cobot is not only its collaborative aspect, but also its ease of installation and return on investment (ROI). The collaborative robot series has taken off in a variety of industries, enabling new technological breakthroughs
Line designers can now use one machine to perform multiple operations thanks to robots that are highly flexible and provide fast multi-tooling. The need to increase the efficiency of the production cells to obtain the largest number of operations in the smallest space. Plants in established car-producing countries cannot simply decide to increase their footprint.
Cobots that work alongside humans in automated processes are already in the future. Collaborative solutions are already transforming the way we operate and eventually the industrial world we know, whether they are used in production, storage, maintenance or training. They are also suitable for entry level automation applications because they are easy to develop and
In the Production and Processing line, KUKA Robotics displayed its extensive product line of automation solutions tailored to this segment of the industry. Food processing industries can now use robots to automate processes that were previously difficult, if not impossible, to automate thanks to this diverse range of products. The KUKA Food Series is available
The demand for smarter and more flexible robotic automation for ABB FlexLoaders machining applications is growing as more efficient and advanced machine tools enter the market. The requirement to adequately meet specific customer preferences is a critical issue facing machine shops and builders in various industries, especially as the shift from mass manufacturing to mass
Yaskawa has added new functions to its MP3300iec RBT solution from the ‘Singular Control’ end-to-end solution, which enables robots, servo drives, inverters and I/O systems to be controlled from a single controller. ‘Circular Conveyor Tracking’ allows automatic tracking of linear conveyor movements. By calculating the corresponding radius, the software can determine the exact position of
